Legendary Thread Reference

[LeftyJason]

Figured it'd be nice to have a place to go to find some of the Legendary threads. They can be old ones (like gecko45), newer ones (like buddly or recoil control bipods), or even as a place to check what looks like it might turn into a Legendary thread. I've seen a few times where different members have said that they wish they'd known about the thread sooner. This is where you go to figure out where some of the Hide inside jokes/ inside references started.

Friendly reminder. Don't necro a thread without a good reason on threads that are open.

Anyone can add a new link that they think deserves Legendary Status. If there is a new thread currently running I might not get there in time.

Do you guys prefer MIL or MOA?

Rifle Scopes - Adapting to First Mil Scope

Ok. I'm finally convinced and will be buying a Mil scope for my new MPA PMR Pro. My question is how to adapt as this will be the only Mil scope in the stable? All the others are MOA as I shot NRA/CMP service rifle and that was the "language". The scope on the rifle now is a Vortex Viper PST...

MOA vs Mil

Yes, bringing this up again because I can never get a real answer, even during a match with the top shooters. I know this is not really that big of a deal with calculator and all. What is even more odd, I have watched videos on people not in the US doing reviews on certain items and they are...

Rifle Scopes - Current state of MOA and MIL

So, I've ordered my RPR 6.5. Next paycheck is the NF ATACR F1 7-35x56 MILXT Now comes the next great question: MILs vs MOA. I've heard some great back and forth on here. From what I can ascertain, MOA used to be king of the hill, but the new crop is coming in with a lot more MIL these...

Rifle Scopes - MOA vs Mil

Gents, I have some lower grade scopes that are either MOA or Leupold's TMR reticle. Been teaching my kid while I myself learn and mostly using a SWFA 10x42 MOA scope. She just ordered her first rifle, a Bergara LRP in 6.5 CM, and I am building a .308 off a 700 Police 5R from Eurooptic on a...

Rifle Scopes - Another mil vs moa thread

I am going to put an Athlon Ares etr on my .300wm. I have always been moa and can't see an advantage to go mil. In fact, the way I see it, moa is better. At 100 yards, 1/10th mil is about .36" vs .25 or .125 with moa. At 1000 yards, 1 moa is 10 inches while 1 mil is about 36 inches. Is that...

Recoil Control Bipods

I'm curious what you guys think of these recoil control bipods? They are designed to function in grassy terrain, not rocks or sand and mainly for competitions, like F-Class but work well in certain types of sniper matches as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvw-4DuHE9Q

Nothing wrong with the bench comment at all. It was the context and situation it was used in that gave it the extra derp flavor. And the way he reacted to other folks in the thread offering differing opinions. Derp multiplied by 10.
